    you are right about pricing, wrong about the wrap. wrap LOOKS like Wrap. want carbon, get carbon, dont even bother with trying for some cheap knock off alternative that will look like shit compared to the real thing.

    won regret it eh? I guess you arent aware of all of the pitfalls on some of the tyga items. for example. many of the tyga kits alter the lights on the bike, thus you firstly have to also purchase the tyga lights, that are made to fit the altered fairings and placements. then you pay for shipping and duties etc, the fuck around fitting everything, and then get told your bike is no longer legal, because the TYGA lights that are made to fit into the TYGA kit are NOT 'E' marked and are not legal in new zealand, effectively making a number of their products useless in NZ. So unless their parts allow you to use your stock lights, dont bother.
    There are other pitfalls also and it pays to really do your homework before forking out for 'cool' looking sht from overseas because it looks like a good price

    wrong, race fairings dont have holes for lights. go through their site. I have seen more road fairings than race fairings on their site.

    and no.

    Tyga are an over the board Aesthetics company, they do a few bits and pieces that you will gain on performance wise (Street) but their main sellers are their Bling items, CNC Triple clamps, hangers, levers etc etc, then their street fairing sets then its their race stuff, race fairings exhaust systems and little pieces that put your bike on a diet,
    I have delt with them once and thought they were good to deal with, my goods arrived within 4 days of sale and everything was as pictured etc, I didn't buy any big ticket items like fairings, but my next buy in the next few days will be a stainless race exhaust system for my VFR, you have to enquire about their kits, the one you are looking at will be fine for the standard light fittings, but TT is right some of their kits look the shit, but you need an extra spot light, or a new indicator system or whatever and its not stamped, these guys are based in Taiwan believe it or not
